Russian Mariachi Music

Ay-yi-yi-yi. No, we’re not talking mariachi music today (although here’s a version of that song in Russian, in case you're interested). Instead, we’re doing three items involving artificial intelligence: AI-AI-AI, get it? First up: Networked Insights, a social media monitoring system, has just launched an “AI-fueled audience marketing platform”. The company captures information that people share through Web, mobile, and social network behaviors, builds individual profiles, and then makes them available in audiences that can be reached through Twitter, Facebook, and ad exchanges.

But wait, there’s more. Site search vendor Celebros now also offers individual-level Web site personalization, based on its semantic site search predictions. As the company says, it’s “the obvious next step after natural language site search”. Natural language processing is definitely a type of artificial intelligence, although Celebros doesn’t use the term. Apparently they didn’t get the memo. Ay-yi-yi indeed. (Fun fact: I couldn’t find a search function on Celebros’ own Web site.)
